Hello again, everybody! OMG I cannot believe that I've already gotten this far! I feel like I'm gonna go to a party and dance all night to the best song ever! Wait that was a crappy reference.

Inuyasha Muse: Uh, yeah. It was.

Me: Oh, shut up.

Inuyasha Muse: I still don't see why we need to have new names here. *grumble grumble*

Raineyes Muse: Oh, stop your complaining, we just saved your lives.

Kagome Muse: Yeah, but you were knocked out half the time.

Me: Oh be quiet Kagome, you were too.

Icenose Muse: Forgetting anything?

Me: Oh, yeah!

I do not own Inuyasha or Warriors. All rights go to their proper owners.

…

"Mama!" Ebonykit squealed racing up to embrace Raineyes. She laughed and purred as a black she-kit with icy blue eyes walked a lot more quietly up to Icenose and cuddled up to her, purring loudly.

"My darling daughter, thank StarClan your safe." Raineyes purred in return. A tabby tom with amber eyes walked up to the two queens, warmth glowing in his amber eyes.

"Welcome home." He purred as a large group of WindClan cats scampered into sight. Raineyes looked up at them and scanned their ranks.

"It's good to be back, Onestar." She mewed. A pearl-colored she-cat with emerald green eyes padded up to Raineyes and nuzzled her.

"It's good to have you back, sister." She purred. Wolf (Inuyasha) stared at the pearl-colored she-cat in astonishment. They're sisters? Raineyes didn't mention anything about having a sister, mate, or a daughter here. Raineyes nuzzled her sister for a bit before licking Ebonykit's head and coming to stand in front of Inuyasha and his friends.

"I would like to allow these cats to join the Clan." She purred swishing her tail. "You see, they saved my life, and have proven to me and to Icenose that they are worthy to become members of WindClan." She explained. The tom named Onestar looked at the newcomers and smiled.

"Very well." He mewed. He then jumped up onto a high ledge and yowled out for all to hear, "Let all cats old enough to run the moors, join here beneath the Wind Stone for a Clan meeting." All sorts of cats gathered around, and sat down in front of the Wind Stone. As Raineyes told him the names of Inuyasha and his friends, Onestar- apparently the leader –looked down and addressed all of them.

"Clanmates," He started. "It is with great happiness that I announce the return of our two queens, Raineyes and Icenose." Onestar waited for the cheering to die down, and then he continued his report. "I also wish to announce six new additions to our Clan. They may come from the outside, but they have proven to our two queens that they each possess the heart of a warrior." Onestar leaped from the Wind Stone, and stepped up in front of the group of rogues. "Wolf, step forward." He meowed majestically. It took a while, but Inuyasha finally realized that Onestar was talking to him. He stepped up. I just hope that I don't have to fight this guy. Raineyes and Icenose both seem to admire him. Come to think of it, everyone here does. Onestar lifted his head and raised his voice to the sky.

"From this moment forth, until he has received his warrior name, this apprentice will be known as Wolfpaw. StarClan honors his courage and loyalty." Onestar's eyes scanned the clearing, and came to rest on a black tom with orange blotches. "Gaius," He spoke, naming the tom, who straightened. "You and your brother, Leafstorm, both came from the outside, and yet you have quickly adapted to the ways of the Clan, and even had kits here." He smiled. "I hope that you pass on these attributes to your first apprentice, Wolfpaw." The Clan cheered Inuyasha's new name, and Gaius pressed his nose to Wolfpaw's, and they stepped out of the way. Onestar gave everyone their apprentice names until only Shippo, shivering, was left. Onestar looked at the young tom and his gaze softened.

"Fox," He said softly. "Step forward." Shippo complied, whimpering and trembling the whole way. "Fox. Even now, though you are trembling, I see that your heart is full of gold. You have stood by your friends' sides even when you wanted to run away, and stuck by their side day by day." Onestar again scanned the crowd, and his eyes came to rest on Raineyes. "Raineyes." He mewed. "You have suffered great tragedy in your life, and once left the Clan. However," He continued before Raineyes could interrupt. "You came back to us when the time was right, and we honor that. You shall mentor Foxpaw." Raineyes stepped forward and laid her muzzle on her new apprentice. A cheer went up, calling out the names of the new apprentices. Icenose agreed that she would look after Ebonykit while Raineyes was out training Foxpaw. Wolfpaw headed for the apprentices den, and met two other apprentices there.

"Hello!" One of them sneered. "How are the new little KITS coming along?" He scoffed. "Apprentices of WindClan, yeah right!" He teased jabbing Foxpaw with a claw. Foxpaw yelped and leaped back, bumping into Spiritpaw. The red she-cat next to him held her tail in front of him.

"Stop it, Harepaw! They're our new denmates, not enemies!" She then stared wistfully towards Wolfpaw, gazing into his eyes. "Sorry about my brother," She mewed. "He can be a bit of a bully at times, especially to those who aren't Clanborn. My name is Lilypaw." Wolfpaw grunted that he accepted her apology on her brother's behalf, and curled up in a nest lined with bracken and eagle feathers to sleep. Well, that went relatively well. But I can't wait to get back home.

In his dreams, Wolfpaw was walking in a forest much like that of his home. He then saw a starry she-cat with black fur, with the same build as Spiritpaw. Her scent was much like that of someone very dear to Wolfpaw's heart…

"K-kikyo?" He whispered. Kikyo nodded, and ran lightly into the forest. "Wait, Kikyo!" He yowled, racing after her. He was then greeted by a horde of starry cats. They all stared at him, and Wolfpaw looked around at all of them in awe. He had never seen so many cats. Then again, when have I ever seen more than one cat in one place? One of them stepped forward. He was a brown tom with an incredibly long tail and a star on his forehead. He stepped up.

"Welcome, young Wolfpaw, to StarClan." He mewed. Wolfpaw blinked and shook his head. "I understand you're confusion, young one; you are dreaming, and yet you feel more alive and awake then you ever have in the waking world." The tom then leaned in to him. "My name is Tallstar. We are the ancestors of the warriors in the living Clans. I was WindClan's leader back in the forest, my Clan's old home." Wolfpaw just stared at Tallstar as if the old tom was crazy.

"You crazy flea-bag." He spat. "You're mad. I'm dreaming, this isn't real. Go away!" He yowled, and then Wolfpaw woke up to Silverpaw's new mentor, Crowfeather, prodding at his side.

"Wake up, lazybones. Training is early today. Come on, you're the last one up." Wolfpaw yawned and got to his feet drowsily. "Finally!" Crowfeather snarled. "I thought you'd never wake up."

"Shut up." Wolfpaw grunted, forgetting that he was talking to a senior warrior, and the Clan's deputy.

"Another snide comment like that and you'll be seeing nothing but ticks and the elders' hindquarters for a moon!" Crowfeather snapped. Wolfpaw groaned, and headed out of the den, yawning.

…

Foxpaw stood stock still, not even daring to breathe as he inched forward. The rabbit hadn't even noticed him yet, and was plucking at the ground. There wasn't a single burrow in sight, and Foxpaw was doing wonderfully. He suddenly stood stock still as a tiny baby rabbit came out from behind the larger one. Raineyes immediately knew why the young apprentice was hesitating. When his father had died, he had been killed for his pelt. Killing this young rabbit's parent made Foxpaw feel as if he was one of the Thunder Brothers himself. Also because of that, he greatly distrusted ThunderClan, even though one of the apprentices had seemed to like him at a gathering.

"It's alright." Raineyes whispered. "They're just prey. They don't feel emotions like we do." She whispered into his ear. Foxpaw shook his head and continued to creep up on the tiny creature. He pounced and held both of the squirming rabbits in his claws. He killed them both with a swift bite, then hung his head, ashamed of himself. "That was amazing!" Raineyes purred. "You're first catch, and already you're hunting like a proper warrior. Now, let's go and join that training session, shall we?" Foxpaw nodded, and the two scraped earth over they're prey.

"Wolfpaw, your goal is to fight with your paws sheathed so something like that doesn't happen!" Crowfeather hissed rushing over to his apprentice. Silverpaw rubbed at the scratch on her nose and shivered. Raccoonpaw rushed over to her, and began to move his paw over her rear. She stopped, glared at him, and slapped him to the ground with her paw.

"Keep your paws away from there." She hissed glaring at him. Petalpaw sighed, shaking her head. Crowfeather just stared, wide-eyed and eye twitching.

"Umm… what just happened?" Gaius murmured. Wolfpaw shook his head, sighing. Raineyes and Foxpaw padded into the clearing, both of them smelling strongly of rabbit and partridge eggs.

"We hit the motherlode!" Foxpaw purred smiling up at his mentor. "A whole nest of partridge eggs, and not a single parent in sight! There must have been, like, sixty of them!" Foxpaw then perked his ears and turned his head towards camp. "Was that…?" His eyes then widened in terror. "The camp!" He yowled, and raced off to WindClan camp. The warriors all stared at each other as a scream interrupted the still air. And they all raced back to camp.

They entered WindClan's camp to find it under heavy assault. Each of the cats was fighting for their lives, and the attackers seemed to be winning half the time. A scream sounded form the nursery. The kits! Wolfpaw immediately raced off towards the nursery and saw Icenose and the kits backed up against the wall, Icenose with her back arching and her lips curled back to reveal gleaming sharp teeth; the kits were huddled behind her. Wolfpaw screeched and hurtled himself towards one of the attackers, who quickly threw him off and advanced on him and Icenose. Icenose flashed him a look of gratitude, and the invaders were upon them. Wolfpaw fought with everything he had, and Icenose did the same. A black tom with red eyes snatched up the kits, and that's all Wolfpaw saw before he was knocked to the ground. He screeched with fury, and pushed up against his attacker, fighting with all he had. The kits needed him!

"Wolfpaw!" Spiritpaw, Silverpaw, and Raccoonpaw were each outlined against the entrance, and they leapt into the fight.

…

"Even though they failed in their attempt to protect the kits, they fought like warriors, and today I name them as such." Onestar leaped down and stepped up to Wolfpaw, who glowed with pride. I'm gonna be a warrior! He thought, ecstatic with joy. He then realized that, only a few moons ago, he didn't even know what a warrior was. Well now, I do. And I'm gonna be one in just a few moments! Onestar called upon the spirits above him, "I call upon my warrior ancestors to look down upon these apprentices. They have done well to learn the ways of your noble code, and I commend them to you as warriors in their turn. Wolfpaw, do you promise to uphold the warrior code, to protect and defend this clan, even at the cost of your life?" Wolfpaw staggered a bit, dizzy from blood loss, but his voice was steady as he responded,

"I do." Onestar smiled.

"Then by the powers of StarClan, I give you your warrior name. From this moment on, you shall be known as Wolfstrike. StarClan honors your loyalty and courage, and we welcome you as a full member of WindClan."

All of the other cats cheered the names of the new warriors, Silverlight, Spiritsong, Raccoontail, and Wolfstrike. As Wolfstrike started his vigil, he stood proudly amongst his friends. He WOULD protect and defend this Clan, HIS Clan, with his life. He stared off into the distance, and guarded his home.
